Hello everyone! Meet Rob😁
“Literature has been deeply personal to me since childhood. As a sensitive kid from a dysfunctional family, I used books as an escape from family fighting and would retreat to my room to read or write in my journal. Literature has always represented a place ...of comfort and a safe space where I could escape into different worlds when my own was traumatic. 📖 🌎
A book that particularly shaped me was “From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler,” about kids who run away to live in a museum. I strongly related to this story because it dealt with dysfunctional family themes, and I shared that fantasy of escaping to places like museums or libraries. While I didn’t physically run away, I did so metaphorically through reading and writing.✍️
As a teacher now, I believe that the best way to learn writing is through writing itself and reading other writers. While I can provide guidelines and suggestions, reading other writers is how I learned to be a reader myself. Reading remains my calm place, where I return when feeling frustrated or sad. I truly believe that reading saves lives.” 📚 📚
